Rock Band 3 Keyboard Revealed

USA Today has revealed the new instrument in Rock Band 3 in action – and it ain’t no keytar. No, this is a true-blooded keyboard, with two whole octaves worth of 25 keys.

During the game, green, red, blue, yellow or orange keys flow on a “stream” representing the notes to be played on five corresponding keyboard keys. In a new authentic Pro mode meant to help players segue to actual instruments, all 25 keys are used; the streams shifts left and right to cover the correct keys. The keyboard also works as a MIDI keyboard that can be connected to a computer. “This is a real instrument and a real device,” says senior designer Sylvain Dubrofsky.

They also have carried over the vocal harmonies feature from The Beatles: Rock Band as well.
